Excessive Sweating

[badday]

Hi I am a 71 year old lady and have been on been on dialysis for 2 years. I suffer excessive sweating while on dialysis and my bed and clothing is soaked. The nurses are very concerned and tell me to discuss this with the consultant, which I have done, but he has not come up with any answers. Does anyone else have the same problem?

Hi!

Are you diabetic? Do you have neuropothy?

I asked my technician today about your excessive sweating and he thought it may be related to low blood pressure. When you have really low blood pressure you can get headaches, feel lightheaded and also sweat as a result. His other question was are you diabetic because that can also cause sweating. Hope that helps!

I am not diabetic, but I do sometimes suffer low blood pressure. Thank you for your response.
